Long-term care is teetering on the brink of disaster.
Even before COVID-19, the sector endured widespread economic and operational problems. Now, nursing homes and assisted living residences, are reeling from the loss of patients, lower revenues, staff recruitment and retention obstacles as well as a growing call for review and reform from the public and government agencies.
And we haven’t yet seen the tide of litigation, which is bound to swell as guilt-ridden and angry families seek to take revenge for the deaths of tens of thousands of their relatives.
How can the sector survive – or more accurately, how will it survive?
Most of the inventory in congregate senior care is unattractive, inaccessible and/or unaffordable. Why?
The result is a hodgepodge that costs too much, includes perverse incentives, and is almost impossible to navigate. As developed economies reel from disproportionate COVID-19 related deaths among the elderly in congregate care settings, isn’t it time to look past old models, which weren’t working anyhow, and start afresh with creative ideas and 21st-century innovation?
From an ethical point of view, the vulnerable elderly and disabled in our midst deserve better. The post-World War II Baby-Boom cohort is entering their 70s and could overwhelm the existing age care & support systems.
From an economics point of view, we need to do something to bend the cost curve.
The system, to put it bluntly, cannot survive unless we take bold steps.
COVID-19 has changed the Long Term Care markets; stay UPDATED.
